Prime Day 2024 is behind us. The July savings event gave shoppers incredible discounts on the best Android tablets, and there were even some Prime Day tablet deals on the latest iPad models.
More specifically, the 11-inch M4 iPad Pro (2024) was $100 off (discounted by $70 and a coupon helped users save an extra $30). The larger-sized M2 iPad Air (2024) was under the spotlight during the event as well. The 13-inch tablet was $61 cheaper on both days of the Prime Day 2024 event.

Besides the latest models, Amazon gave iOS users a chance to snatch the iPad mini 6 for 24% ($119) off its usual price. The deal was initially available on the 64GB Wi-Fi-only model. However, on Day 2 of the Prime Day event, the 256GB model with cellular capability got the same price cut.

Amazon cut prices for the vanilla model with 256GB of storage by a whopping $300! There was also a discount on the Plus model at the largest e-commerce store. On both days of Prime Day 2024, users could get the Galaxy Tab S9+ for $250 off its list price.

Prime Day 2024 tablet deals included some discounts on affordable Lenovo Tab models. One of the more exciting deals let users save $94 on the Lenovo Tab P12 kit with a keyboard and a stylus. This deal was available at the official Lenovo store.
As for Amazon, it slashed prices for the ultra-affordable Lenovo Tab M11 with a stylus and a Folio Case by $60. The entry-level Lenovo Tab M9 (2023) was 27% off with an included case. Indeed, Prime Day 2024 was a great time to buy yourself a new budget tablet at bargain prices.
Amazon Fire tablet fans were in for a treat during Prime Day 2024. There was a 50% markdown on the Fire HD 8, a hefty discount on the base Amazon Fire HD 10 (2023) model. On Prime Day, Prime members could save 46% on this bad boy.
For Windows fans, there was a deal on the Surface Pro 9 in Forest. The model with 16GB RAM, 256GB storage, and an Intel Core i7 chip was discounted by $431 at Walmart. Last but not least, we saw a huge 30% markdown on the Pixel Tablet.
When was Prime Day 2024?
In 2024, Amazon Prime Day began on July 16 and lasted for 48 hours until July 17.
Where can I find the best deals for Prime Day 2024?
Amazon! But keep in mind that while many of the best Prime Day deals will be available at the e-commerce giant, you might want to keep an eye on its rival stores. Over the past two years or so, Best Buy and Walmart have launched incredible discounts to draw shoppers' attention.
Ultimately, if the tablet on your wishlist isn't available at Amazon, it pays to check out available offers at the aforementioned merchants. If you're lucky enough, you might find it discounted over there.
How long does Prime Day 2024 last?
48 hours. Unlike Black Friday, which spread across two weeks last year, Prime Day tends to last only two days. That's to say, you won't have much time to take advantage of the exceptional deals. With that in mind, as might be expected, Prime Day deals often require membership, so you might want to consider getting one before the event starts.
